# [closed] What format could I post equations in OR-exchange

 1 I have equations in mathtype and TEX format: $$\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{29} {\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{30} {{J_1}{s_{i,j,1}}} } + \sum\limits_{i = 1}^{30} {\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{29} {{J_1}{s_{i,j,2}}} } + \sum\limits_{i = 1}^{29} {\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{29} {{J_3}{s_{i,j,3}}} }$$ \eqalign{ & \forall i = 1...29\,j = 1...30\,\;k = 1...4 \cr & \left[ {\matrix{ {{s_{i,j}}} \cr {{s_{i + 1,j}}} \cr {{s_{i,j,1}}} \cr } } \right] = {y_{i,j,1,1}}\left[ {\matrix{ 0 \cr 0 \cr 0 \cr } } \right] + {y_{i,j,1,2}}\left[ {\matrix{ 1 \cr 0 \cr 0 \cr } } \right] + {y_{i,j,1,3}}\left[ {\matrix{ 0 \cr 1 \cr 0 \cr } } \right] + {y_{i,j,1,4}}\left[ {\matrix{ 1 \cr 1 \cr 1 \cr } } \right] \cr} But I don't know how to post it in OR-exchange, do you have some idea? thank you :D asked 13 Jul '14, 23:58 Chivalry 229●3●19 accept rate: 0% fbahr ♦ 4.6k●7●16

 3 The math typesetting in OR Exchange is done using MathJax. You input regular LaTeX expressions, but you use '\ (' and '\ )' to open and close math mode instead of '$' (and '\ [' and '\ ]' instead of '$\$' (close up the spaces). You also need to escape the backslash character with a backslash, so wherever you would put a backslash in the LaTeX, you need to put two backslashes here (thus '\\ (' and '\\ )' with spaces closed up). Most basic math works fine. answered 14 Jul '14, 11:30 Matthew Salt... ♦ 4.7k●3●10 accept rate: 17% 1 I also found an work around.... Using a windows together with Mathtype and it would help you to automatically format it into the format in OR-exchange:D (14 Jul '14, 11:45) Chivalry
